2. The Incredible, Combustible Dothraki Roundhouse - so this stone and dirt floored structure bursts into uncontrollable flames by a few coals being spilled on the ground? Did they spray the ground with oil to keep down the dust?

I am glad, though, that there's a chance that the Daenerys storyline might actually progress, that we finally had a Stark scene that brought mist to my eyes from something other that tragedy, and that we might be moving toward a confrontation that will bring an end to Ramsay. I've had enough of the token "Did you know Ramsay is a psychopath?" scene jammed into ever other episode.
The Tyrells are probably pretty desperate, with both children being tortured and potentially facing execution.

Tommen is a child figure head. The Tyrells wouldn't need to consult with him.

I was also under the impression that Jorah had put a combustible of some kind around the building. The fire seemed to spread faster as it touched the walls.
